Slobodan Praljak brings a bottle to his lips, during a Yugoslav War Crimes Tribunal in The Hague, Netherlands.

Praljak tilted back his head and took a swing from a flask or glass as the judge delivered the verdict.

Former military commander Slobodan Praljak consumed liquid from a small brown bottle moments after losing his appeal against a 20-year sentence for war crimes committed during the bloody 1990s break-up of Yugoslavia, reports The Guardian.

Tribunal spokesman Nenad Golcevski, when asked by AP if he could confirm the death, said: "I have no information to share at this point".

Praljak - who was jailed for 20 years in 2013 for committing crimes against Bosnian Muslims - then told the judge: "I just drank poison".
